The M-Audio AV-30 Studiophile monitors are great 3"-woofer speakers that will make your multimedia listening experience better than before! If you value sound quality, the Studiophile monitors will provide you with much more low end, better clarity, and better headroom without distortion than your average pair of PC speakers that you might buy from a PC store.
The Studiophile AV-30 speakers are made by M-audio - a company specialising in creating products for pro-audio market - therefore the AV-30 Studiophile monitors will provide a satisfying, full sound for a multimedia listening experience that is clear, clean and importantly unhyped. Many speaker systems will accentuate bass and/or treble frequencies to make you perceive them to be fuller and louder. Whilst the sound does seem better when using enhancers, it also becomes much more unnatural. The Studiophile AV-30 monitors provide a much flatter response which is easier on the ear to listen to, and will enable you to create better mixes of audio tracks for music or video which will translate well onto other systems.
